Women in Business South Utah County members recently pulled together to raise funds for Mac’s Gift Children’s Cancer Foundation.

Mac's Gift is an organization designed to bring relief and joy to families who have children who suffer with cancer. This horrible disease not only affects the child, but the whole family. And that is what makes this foundation unique.

Maple Mountain FFA gave a gift of love to the Festival of Trees held in Sandy Utah. This year the officers chose the theme of "We Wish You a Rustic Christmas." Two of the senior boys, Shadoe Holm and Decker Nielson, designed and created the tree completely out of horse shoes. It took 200 horseshoes and 15 man hours to complete. The tree was simply decorated by the rest of the officer team with lights and garland. Burlap boxes were created to be put with the tree.
 

 

On December 10, 2013, The City of Spanish Fork received Business of the Month for their support of local business and the economic growth of the city.  

The Spanish Fork Salem Area Chamber of Commerce voted to give this award to Spanish Fork City for the work the Spanish Fork City Council and the city staff do to bring new business opportunities to Spanish Fork.

The academy was founded by Nesha Woodhouse in 2000 in her 15×15 family. Lifehouse has grown over the years through different facilities including a garage, a converted racquetball court, Peeteneet Academy, an old True Value Hardware and has now settled in 17,500 square foot facility in Salem, Utah.

The Spanish Fork Salem Area Chamber of Commerce lit up Main Street with their annual Winter Lights Parade on November 29^th.

This year the Winter Lights Parade had 42 entries, including schools, local businesses, families, as well as anyone else who wanted to be a part of the parade. For some families being in the parade is an annual tradition. Parade participants spend much time decorating their entries to be full of lights and make everyone excited for the holiday season.

Wishing You and Yours a Merry Christmas
and a Happy New Year
